Hehe nice, first few pages are a pretty big toss info comes a bit later.
And how come we don't get M3 sedans in aus rorted. 30psi on pump fuel woot. Would be very interesting to say the least and i wonder how reliable it is for long term use.

was reading this last night. was about to post it up for you's but u saved me the trouble 
to be honest with you, i prolly wouldnt turn it down if it was offered to me

yup aparantly some manufacturers use the slant to proportion more weight to the side opposite the driver for better balance

And oil drainage. Most (probably all) engines sit at a slight slant for this reason.

Versus M5 V10 : http://www.da-motorsport.com/video/m5_ao.mpg
Versus M3 E46 SMG : http://www.da-motorsport.com/video/e46_ao.mpg
Versus Ferrari Modena : http://www.da-motorsport.com/video/modena.mpg
Doesn't really look like a 1000hp there other 1000hp m3 , look it vs a 400hp 360 , which really dont got that well if you look at 360 lap times in this country , vs a stock 505hp m5 limo . Must have a peak 1000hp in a dyno queen shoot out . Love the smoke it blows to  Really a 360 has about 300rwhp , and a stock early m3 205rwhp , so it would be passing that 360 about that fast if it had 400rwhp . And lots of people make kits for 400-450rwhp for those cars now .
Now if they come across these cars in france they might have there ass handed to them

Bmw's alway have very underrated performance figures , mostly due to that most of there engines have lineal power curves . Or more torque than hp .
If you think that a big hp rating in a heavy kind of car is great , then have a look at this for a laugh . S2000 vs a 1980's e21 323i . Fuck i would be taking my honda back if this happened to me , not that i would ever own a honda anyway . Remember a 323i m20 2.3 engine has only 143hp , but great torque and a smooth curve .

Most of the BMW engines are on a slant like that, the slant on that one is completely normal.
Should see the slant on my engine, you can't even come CLOSE to seeing the exhaust manifold.
When you think about it though, the inlet gasses and fuel kinda 'fall' throught the cylinder head via means of gravity.

LOL. Honda's aren't that bad. Integra VTiRs do okay vs. Alpha Spyder T-Sparks.

So what are you staying ? that a heavy underpowered convertable would be fast ? { maybe try a GTV,156,147 } or you want to be blown away by a 80's bmw ? Which is it ?
